Dashboard Confessional
Carve Your Heart Out Yourself
[Verse 1]
Carve your heart out yourself
Hopelessness is your cell
Since you've drawn out these lines
Are you protected from trying times?

[Pre-Chorus]
Man, it takes a silly girl to lie about the dreams she has
But Lord, it takes a lonely one to wish that she had never dreamt at all

[Chorus]
Oh, look now, there you go with hope again
Oh, you're so sure I'll be leaving in the end

[Verse 2]
Dig your ditch deep enough
To keep you clear of the sun
You've been burned more than once
You don't think much of trust

[Pre-Chorus]
Man, it takes a silly girl to lie about the dreams she has
But Lord, it takes a lonely one to wish that she had never dreamt at all

[Chorus]
Oh, look now, there you go with hope again
But I'll be sure your secret's safe with me
Oh, you're so sure I'll be leaving in the end
You're treating me like I'm already gone
[Bridge]
But I'm not, I will stay where you are, always
I will stay, I will stay, I will stay

[Outro]
I will stay
I will stay
I will stay (No matter where you go)
I will stay (No matter where you go)
I will stay
I will stay (No matter now where you go)
